In which state is water vapour found in the atmosphere?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Gaseous

Direct answer: C, gaseous. Water exists mainly in three familiar states: solid ice, liquid water and gas or water vapour. Water vapour is the gaseous form, so individual molecules are dispersed through the air and are usually invisible. A is wrong because solid water is ice, snow or hail, not vapour. B is wrong because liquid water consists of droplets or bodies of water; clouds, fog and dew may contain liquid droplets, but those droplets are not water vapour itself. D is wrong because plasma is an ionised state of matter and is not the ordinary state meant by water vapour in the atmosphere. The key word is “vapour”: it names the gas produced when liquid water evaporates. When vapour cools enough, it can condense into liquid droplets or ice crystals. Memory cue: ice = solid, water = liquid, vapour = gas. Visible mist is not necessarily vapour; it is usually made of tiny liquid droplets suspended in air.
